[Solved] Change server name -> UnknownHostException

[dranakan]

Hello,

I recently changed the name of my server and I get a error in the Alfresco log. Alfresco is running well. Ping ged1 is ok.
RHEL 5, Alfresco 3.4d.

To change the name of my server, I modified :

/etc/hosts

# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
127.0.0.1       localhost.localdomain   localhost
::1     localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6
10.10.10.115         ged1.office.custom.ch   ged1‍‍‍‍‍‍

/etc/sysconfig/network

NETWORKING=yes
NETWORKING_IPV6=no
HOSTNAME=ged1
‍‍‍‍

And done a "service network restart"… start Alfresco…
What did I missed ?

Thank you.

There is no more message if alfresco (java+mysql) run as user alfresco instead of root : http://forums.alfresco.com/en/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=37882#p111282

Solution is in https://issues.alfresco.com/jira/browse/ALF-8316 . This is caused by https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XMLCOMMONS-28 . Your script must cd to a writeable directory other than / before running alfresco.
